The federal government has filed a new 16-count charge against Yahaya Bello, former governor of Kogi state, accusing him of criminal breach of trust and misappropriation of public funds amounting to N110,446,470,089.
The charges were filed on Wednesday before a federal high court in Abuja, with two other co-defendants, Abdulsalami Hudu and Umar Oricha, both officials of the Kogi state government.
The charges allege that Bello and his co-defendants used state treasury funds to acquire numerous properties both within Nigeria and abroad, including high-end locations in Abuja and Dubai.
The charge sheet outlines the following allegations:
Count 1- Bello, Oricha, and Hudu are accused of conspiring in 2016 to illegally mismanage N110,446,470,089 from the Kogi State treasury, breaching their trust.

Count 16- Yahaya Bello alone is accused of controlling N677,848,000, unlawfully obtained from Bespoque Business Solutions Limited, between 2017 and 2018 in Abuja.
Yahaya Bello is already facing a 19-count charge filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), and these new charges further intensify legal scrutiny on his activities during his time as governor of Kogi state.
